Students seeks Pictou County’s help

A Grade 3 student in Eastern Passage is asking Pictou County residents to help him with a school project.

This week The News received a letter from Sam, who is in a French immersion social studies class.

Here’s what he wrote:

My name is Sam. I am in grade 3 at Tallahassee Community School in Eastern Passage. We are learning about Nova Scotia and we would like to know a little bit about your community. Could you please send a letter or postcard with a bit of information and why you like your community. Thank you!

P.S. I speak English and French.

His teacher Tracy MacDonald explained that she is hoping to help the students learn about different communities by actually hearing from the people who live there, so students were each assigned a newspaper in the province to write to help with the project.
